Hello there dear Lee - what's cooking good-looking? Which 1400 monsterz are you reading

Sorry I take so long to respond. I have been out 'scouting' around to see the score-on-the-door for Sacajawea and it is coming back to me as a two thumbs up!
Are they chocolate cupcakes? are they DOUBLE chocolate cupcakes?
*swoons with longing/vapours/bustle rub/chocolate deprivation*

Oh, and Susanna - good call on Russka. I think I've forgotten that I've read more gorillas than I realized!



Well, not exactly double chocolate cupcakes. More like chocolate with um green buttercream icing. M's choice! Still quite tasty.
And Shogun has been listed twice with two different editions... I'm a librarian, but I don't know how to handle that... over to you Susanna!

Green for St. Patrik's? M is your boss, just as Aubery is ours
:O)
*feeling stoopid*
you talking about cats, or children?
you talking about cats, or children?

Both really - M is Lee's daughter
Aubery is THE Vampire Executive Dawg
Belinda is Susanna's cat
And you have S

aahhhhh! Thank you for clarifying. (Love the dancing black cat, which found its way automagically to my file folder...)

hello Barb - yes, that's Mutley in a pose that is so suggestive of how I feel a lot of the time.
:O))


Vote for the edition that has over 800 pages and you are on the scoreboard
:O)



The edition of Daniel Deronda (#49) mentioned is less than 800 pages. So is the edition of The Quincunx (#54). The mentioned edition of The Brothers Karamazov (#13) is less than 800 pages as well (which is odd, as my Dutch paperback translation is nearly 1200 pages). I very much doubt whether The Pickwick Papers (#33) will be long enough, discounting notes and so on, as the edition mentioned has only 801 pages...
P.S.
Don't get me wrong, I do like your list :-)

Hello there - the version listed as #1 here is the scholastic version: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... which comes in at 870 pages and fits the bill.
To remove an edition of a book that does not fit the bill requires a librarian, which I am not, and most of the librarians who are still around on grramazon quite rightly refuse to do any librariany type things since all their hard work was undone earlier this year.
We still have fun where we can find it and hope you will too.
:O)

I could remove the books you want to delete, if you like...




Aaaw Andrew, as you can see, this list has items from all the genres, which is just how I wanted it to be: a list for everyone to enjoy and add to. No exclusions.
And people looking for massive tombs are, in the main, pharonic by nature. LOL

Happy New Year, everyone.

I come to lists to find new books to read that fit the category. So, seeing a mid series book on the list because it's the only book in the series that fits the criteria does not help me in anyway shape or form.
